Drawing inner strength is literally what Victoria Blumenfeld relied on to escape a traumatic cult and heal her inner niña through art. Victoria is an immensely talented colored pencil artist who turned to her innate artistic talent to create her own beautiful life.

Her Mexican and Salvadoran culture were whitewashed from the blanket of cult conformity. Even so, she was burdened with keeping the family together by taking on adult responsibilities as a child.

Victoria experienced losing both her Latina cultura and herself until that moment when she screamed, "Enough!" and fought to regain her self identity.

She took a courageous stand against a religious cult to begin her journey of self discovery and healing at the age of 21, taking a plane for the first time and reveling in the freedom of choice.

It's amazing how this soft spoken, yet fierce, Latina fought for her authentic self and now wants to help others heal from their traumatic childhoods through art.
